  "account": "Yaxel Lendeborg, a surprise package in the NBA this season, has been praised for his talent and potential, even by Draymond Green, who sees him as the future face of the Golden State Warriors. However, Lendeborg himself doesn't feel he is the franchise's future. During an interview on Prime Video, the rookie dismissed Green's comments, stating, \"No, I do not. No.\" Lendeborg, who initially expected to be a bench player averaging seven points, has since become the team's second option on offense, a role he never imagined for himself. Despite his surprise rise, Lendeborg believes he has the makings of a 'great,' with 70% confidence. He is determined to ease his mind and remind himself that he belongs in the NBA.",
  "summary": "Yaxel Lendeborg has been one of the surprise packages in the NBA this season. The Golden State Warriors rookie has been in the headlines since day one, and even though some of his antics have made a lot of noise, his performances have trumped that.",
